tigerbrew VS ruby-build

I have an early 2011 MacOS with High Sierra 10.13.6. I am attempting to learn from The Odin Project. I have installed XCode and have an account. I went to this link: https://github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbrew to download TigerBrew, thinking my old computer would support it. I used this link as instructed: https://raw.github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbrew/go/install

I'm not a Mac user either, unfortunately, so I don't know how much help I can be with getting things set up. I found something called tigerbrew that might be relevant?

Tigerbrew has a python2 formula available back to 10.4: https://github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbrew/blob/master/Library/...

pkgsrc also runs on other platforms, like NetBSD and illumos, so it has a better chance to work on old versions of macOS. Around 2018, I put pkgsrc on an old PowerPC Mac running the obsolete Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and built a few packages. (I didn't use Joyent's Intel packages, and I didn't know the PowerPC packages at http://sevan.mit.edu/. I also didn't know Tigerbrew.)

I use Tigerbrew for this. It also supports 10.4 and 10.5. You'll also need a copy of XCode (I used version 2.5 on my Leopard install) to install pretty much anything.

Let’s get started. I prefer to manage my Ruby installations on my development machine with chruby paired with ruby-install. Another outstanding set of tools is rbenv with ruby-build. I highly recommend installing Ruby with one of those two sets of tools. Follow the instructions on their project’s READMEs. For this article, I’ll be running Ruby (MRI) v3.3.0.

Seems someone was able to fix your problem with openssl installed from linuxbrew, see herehttps://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build/discussions/2199

git clone https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build.git ~/.rbenv/plugins/ruby-build

$ git clone https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv.git ~/.rbenv $ echo 'eval "$(~/.rbenv/bin/rbenv init - bash)"' >> ~/.bashrc $ exec $SHELL $ git clone https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build.git "$(rbenv root)"/plugins/ruby-build $ git clone https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv-vars.git "$(rbenv root)"/plugins/rbenv-vars $ rbenv install 3.2.0 $ rbenv global 3.2.0 # Test complete install with rbenv-doctor $ curl -fsSL https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv-installer/raw/main/bin/rbenv-doctor | bash $ ruby -v # Shows ruby version number if correctly installed $ gem install bundler # You might be prompted to update some gems, see command below $ gem update --system 3.4.6 # Check if this is recommended after bundler installation $ bundle -v # Shows bundler version number if correctly installed

Great! Already available via ruby-build on rbenv!

I'm using rbenv to manage Ruby versions, and it turns out they recently started building Ruby with OpenSSL 3.0 instead of OpenSSL 1.1.

ruby-build Wiki is good to learn.
